Verse 7
It will evidently be like twilight, neither day nor night (cf. Genesis 1:3-5). Even in the evening there will be more light than usual. It would be a unique day in human history (cf. Jeremiah 30:7). This phenomenon would occur on a day that only Yahweh would know (cf. Matthew 24:36; Acts 1:7).
Other passages also predict cosmic phenomena in the Day of the Lord (Isaiah 13:9-10; Joel 2:31; Joel 3:15; Amos 5:18; Matthew 24:29-30; Revelation 6:12-14; Revelation 8:8-12; Revelation 9:1-18; Revelation 14:14-20; Revelation 16:4; Revelation 16:8-9). Bear in mind that this "day" is an extended period of time, not just a 12-hour or 24-hour period. Here the end of the Tribulation is in view all of which the prophets spoke of as the Day of the Lord along with the Millennium.
